I'd swap DCL for Niasse, Keane for Williams and Lennon for Blasic/Lookman

Yeah he was brilliant when he he had an hour to decide what to do with the ball, before promptly passing it directly to their player, a move which then led to a penalty shortly after. Really good!
He'll be playing, though, as we have nobody else. So yes, it'll likely be the same team imo.
DCL will have impressed Sam enough on Wednesday to have earned a starting spot today.

I wouldn't change the side. Certainly not the defence.
Even Williams finished the WHU game on a high after scoring.

The only changes I'd consider today is the Prince for dcl and if we bring Keane In maybe shove Kenny Lb and Holgate Rb. I wouldn't be surprised though if big Sam brings in Schneiderlin for Davies to be a bit more solid, not that I'd agree.
The important thing today is not to concede first. I'm sure even if it's 0-0 at half time we can grind them down 2nd half attacking the street end.

Looking forward to the attitude of the players. If they can carry on where they left off on Wednesday, it'll be an encouraging sign.

It looks like the only change we could possibly make at the back would be Keane for Williams, and I am hoping we do that. That'd not only give Keane a chance to shine without one of the crabs alongside him, but also be a show of faith in Holgate. Was Jagielka injured on Weds? I know he wasn't in the squad but didn't hear of an injury. Anyway, Martina will surely play left back with Baines out for a few weeks.
I think Wayne will start deeper again, so running the game from behind the number 10, which will be Sigurdsson.
Although DCL played well against WHU, he didn't offer a threat on goal, plus Niasse will be super fit and ought to start up top.
Lemon was decent midweek but, again, a fit and hungry Vlasic may be a better option.
Only other change I can foresee would be Schneiderlin for Davies, but I'd say that depends on how fresh young Tom is. If he's fit for an hour he needs to start ahead of Schneiderlin.
My team - 4-3-2-1
Pickford, Kenny Holgate Keane Martina, Gueye Rooney Davies, Sigurdsson Vlasic, Niasse
Give Sig and Vlasic licence to roam behind Oumar.

With a bit of luck we can find ourselves 9th tonight.
Of those blocking our way:
Leicester face Burnley - tough game with Burnley in that form
Brighton face Liverpool who are in good form again
Newcastle away to Chelsea - only one result there
Tomorrow Southampton have a derby against B'mouth, so bound to be close.

The place improvement will come if we do that, yes. But imagine the boost if we climb three or four places this weekend?
And if we do there will be some people wondering even more why we had to hit the panic button.
